Dane Balsman, Fishing in Neighborhoods (FINs) program coordinator for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, helps stock a FINs lake in winter a couple of years ago. The FINs lakes provide excellent fishing opportunities in 28 counties and may be the best option now for anglers given the unusually wet weather recently.
